Welcome to Parker's CIS@ISU
I
am a Full Professor and Chair of the Computer Information Systems Department at
Idaho State University. I have been a faculty member in the College of Business
since 1999. I've taught CIS classes for the College of Business, computer science
classes for the College of Science and Engineering, and a GIS course for the
College of Arts and Sciences. In 2010 I received a joint appointment to the
Computer Science faculty in the College of Science and Engineering.
I was recognized as an Outstanding Master Teacher by Idaho State University in both 2011 and 2012, and was selected the 2011 Faculty Member of the Year by the Associated Students of Idaho State University. I also received the ISU College of Business 2002-2003 Outstanding Teacher Award.
I received the ISU College of Business 2005-2006 Outstanding Research Award, and in 2007 was awarded a Curtin University Research Fellowship in Perth, Australia.
CIS
is a rewarding and challenging field that
allows for lifelong learning. Job opportunities
abound, and salaries are relatively high. The
demand for CIS graduates is increasing faster than
the general demand for most other fields of study.
Job seekers with a CIS degree and strong
communication and administrative skills are in
increasing demand. For a pdf brochure about the CIS
